Strength in stress...

We all have our times where we are so stressed out and just don't know what to do anymore. I know I have those days! Well, the other night I was super stressed out and fumbling though my Bible trying to find some kind of answer. I found this:

Psalms 62:3-7
So many enemies against one man-- all of them trying to kill me. To them I'm just a broken- down wall or a tottering fence. They plan to topple me from my high position. They delight in telling lies about me. They are friendly to my face, but they curse me in their hearts. I wait quietly before God, for my hopes are in him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.

It was then clear to me at that point. God was telling me "Hey, your stressed out because your not trusting in me. You haven't put all your faith and trust in me." It's true. We often go through a stressful time and think to ourselves "I know God is supposed to help me with my situation but when? I can't handle this anymore" and we often do our own thing wich is not so much God's way sometimes! We have to remember that God's minuet could be our year! He cares so much about us. He gave his only son to die for us so WE can be forgiven! I mean would YOU give your child up and let them die for the whole world? NO you wouldn't. So think twice when your stessed. Stay positive and pray pray pray. Put all your hopes in God as David did in his time of stress. Trust in God and he will never let you down. He might not do things the way you thought, sometimes it's even better!
